Heston Wind provides innovative and proven financial solutions that allow you to attain the renewable erengy project that makes sense for your facility and one that is designed to have minimal impact on your bottom line, or balance sheet.

Some of these financial solutions are:

1) Economic cash flow comparison of the lease payments vs. utility bills
2)  Lease proposal signed and submitted for financing approval, along with the company's       financial statements
3)  Commitment letter issued
4)  All lease documentation prepared for execution
5)  Construction begins
6) Final acceptance of the completed and installed solar system, commencing the lease

*There are a number of ways to fund your renewable energy project, and which one you choose will be based on a number of variables including: your personal financial circumstances, your tolerance for risk, and whether you're willing to trade some financial benefit for a lower-involvement/ownership in the project.

Top 5 Reasons To Lease Your Wind Project

  •  100% Financing
      No out-of-pocket costs. No down payments. No deposits. Zero initial cash outlay.
      *Upfront costs will be required for project discovery and environmental due diligence*

  • Optimal Use of Wind Tax Benefits
      Federal tax credit and accelerated depreciation lower the lease payment.

• Renewable Energy Credits and Carbon Credits
      All applicable and available credits benefit the client's account.

  • Fixed Payments for the Lease Term
      Fixed monthly lease payments represent a significant hedge against rising utility rates.

  • Expensed Lease Payments
      Most leases are considered "true leases" for tax purposes, with the lease payments treated       as an operating expense.
      * This lease program will be changing sometime in 2011, as the legislation changes*

What is the Section 179 Deduction?

Essentially, Section 179 of the IRS tax code allows businesses to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment purchased or financed during the tax year. That means that if you buy (or lease) a piece of qualifying equipment, you can deduct the FULL PURCHASE.

The obvious advantage to leasing or financing equipment and then taking the Section 179 Deduction is the fact that you can deduct the full amount of the equipment, without paying the full amount this year. The amount you save in taxes can actually exceed the payments, making this a very bottom-line friendly deduction (you are reading this correctly - in many cases, the deduction will actually be profit.)

Section 179 can be extremely profitable to you, so it is to your benefit to learn as much as possible. For more details on understanding Section and FAQs, click here.
